And that is NOT spring loaded!!!
When the aoa is large enough the aerodynamic pressure-difference pulls the slats out.

Bf110 Steig und Kampfleistung:

Bf110 ist not able to reach WEP setting:

no way to set manifold pressure higher than 30'

Description on instrument (red outlined markers on surface of gauge) means
D = Dauerbetrieb means permanent allowed pressure (1.25 Ata)
30' = Steigleistung 30 minutes max pressure (1.3 Ata)
1-2 = Start und Kampfleistung one to two minutes (1.4 plus Ata)

Engine management should be able to set Ata to 1.4 and above through throttel at sealevel. Thats not possible in Patch 1.01.14588

I want to disagree with you because this is the first I've ever heard of this. I know wikipedia is notorious for being as incorrect as it is correct at times but this is what I found to support my long held belief that slats are spring operated.

From wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leading_edge_slats

Types include:
Automatic - the slat lies flush with the wing leading edge until reduced aerodynamic forces allow it to extend by way of springs when needed.
Fixed - the slat is permanently extended. This is sometimes used on specialist low-speed aircraft (these are referred to as slots) or when simplicity takes precedence over speed.
Powered - the slat extension can be controlled by the pilot. This is commonly used on airliners.

I do look forward to learning more. Perhaps in another thread though? This one appears to be for initial reporting of problems only and I have already spammed enough I think.
